| Tiivistelmä: | This paper investigates the relationship between pension coverage and the retirement behavior of older men. Pensions are associated with higher work involvement for males in their late fifties and early sixties but with lower rates of job holding for those aged 65-69. Age of entry into pension employment is shown to be positively correlated with future labour supply. When combined with evidence on age-specific changes in labour force participation rates, this pattern casts doubt on the hypothesis that broadened pension coverage explains a substantial portion of the trend towards earlier male retirement. |
